In celebration of Benilde’s 35th founding anniversary, the Center for Emergency Management, Safety, and Security (CEMSS) mounted the 2025 edition of Benilde PRIME: Promoting Resilience through Innovation in Managing Emergencies from July 1 to 5 across all campuses. Co-presented by the Benilde Alumni Association and supported by the Office of the Vice President for Lasallian Mission and Student Life, the weeklong initiative featured interactive exhibits, expert-led seminars, and hands-on training sessions in partnership with the Manila DRRM Office, MMDA, BFP, and other key agencies.
Highlights included the Fire Square Roadshow, CPR stations, and a multi-day exhibit showcasing emergency response tools and protocols. Students and associates engaged with speakers from PHIVOLCS, DENR-MGB, and Civil Defense PH, while renowned crisis expert Martin Aguda Jr. led a seminar on disaster readiness. The event concluded with occupational first aid training, affirming Benilde’s commitment to proactive safety education and community resilience.
The event also recognized the vital role of partner barangays, whose collaboration was facilitated through the Benilde Center for Social Action. Their presence at the exhibits and seminars showed how community efforts and shared learning can make disaster preparedness more practical and inclusive.
